About product

Two millimeter brass with a wide bore

A tube with an outside diameter of 2.0 millimeters and an inside diameter of 1.8 millimeters. The wall is only a tenth of a millimeter, so at the same outside size the bore stays unusually large and the finished part looks light. The length is 305 millimeters and the goods are sold by the piece.

Where to use it

A two millimeter diameter fits the muzzles of medium caliber guns in 1:35 scale, motorcycle exhausts, railing posts and the tubular frames of seats. The large bore allows a smaller tube or heavier wire to be slid inside to create a telescopic, smoothly tapering part. That is exactly how a multi-section antenna or a stepped barrel with a suggestion of a muzzle brake is made.

What to bear in mind

A thin wall means the material will not take being squeezed with pliers or the pressure of a hand-held drill. The end is leveled with a fine-cut file by turning the tube while the file stays still. Before gluing it into plastic it is advisable to roughen the outside with abrasive paper and degrease it, because otherwise the joint holds only mechanically and will come loose under load. Ordinary tin solder and a flux for copper are enough for soldering.

Telescopic assembly

  • A tube with an outside diameter of 1.6 millimeters slides into the 1.8 millimeter bore
  • Two or three steps give an antenna with a tapering end
  • A short offcut of a larger diameter at the muzzle suggests a muzzle brake

It works well to secure the joints between steps with a drop of cyanoacrylate introduced into the seam rather than applied beforehand; the glue then does not run inside and the bore stays open.

FAQ

The first is the outside diameter, the second the inside bore. The difference gives twice the wall thickness.

Yes, the 1.8 millimeter bore will take a thinner tube or heavier wire, so telescopic parts can be assembled.

The wall is very thin, so drilling by hand is not recommended. It is better to make the hole only after the tube has been glued into the part.

Roughen the surface with abrasive paper, degrease it and use a filled cyanoacrylate or a two-part resin.
